Carrera weatherstripping
89 Carrera needs new felt door weatherstripping. This is the one on the car body at the front and top of the door window frame. I have the new felt and screws but the one still on the car is riveted to the car. I suspect I need to drill out all the rivets, take away the old felt and put the new one on with the screws. Does this sound right?
I guess I live with the remains of the rivets "sloshing" around in the car body. Tips appreciated. Thanks, Art |

Art, mine aren't riveted on my '87. They are attached with small screws and these odd domed washer type things, parts 31 and 32 in the PET:
![]() There are supposed to be 15 per door (mine only had 12). Look at yours closely and make sure you don't see a Phillips head. Last I remember the washer things are NLA. Hmmm, on second thought I could see where the washers could look like rivets if there is no screw in there. Perhaps the screw is gone and you just have the washers sunk down into old felt. Are all 15 like this, or just the one(s) you happened to look at?
